Question:
Myself and my husband had intercourse on 15th day after my menstrual cycle. I am so scared that I will get pregnant since we didn’t have any protection. If I got pregnant and I came to know during my 1 month – Is there any medication to abort without going to doctor?
Answer:
May you be reminded that unprotected intercourse, even during the so called ‘Safe Period’ can still lead to unwanted pregnancy. Therefore it is always recommended that one use some form of contraception if one is not planning for a baby soon.
In the event you are pregnant and not keen for the pregnancy, then you need to see a doctor that can offer you a safe abortion. You can go for medical abortion (provided this option is available in your place/Country) if your pregnancy is early, that is not more than 9 week pregnant. That too if you are suitable for that option. If you are not a suitable candidate then your doctor will talk to you about surgical technique, namely the abortion by aspiration. In whatever ways, you still need to see a doctor and not try anything at home.
